Hi Kate, I think there may be a bug in the files available on
http://github.com/wonderchook/PAHO_to_OSM They contain no health_center with "bed=yes" (only "bed=no") whereas "Categorie=CAL" does exist in XLS or SHP files from http://sites.google.com/a/netspective.org/haiti-health-facilities/ Best regards, Jean-Guilhem Kate Chapman a écrit : > Hi All, > > I converted the PAHO medical facilities data into OSM format. > http://github.com/wonderchook/PAHO_to_OSM.
